Chapter 1598

One man and one Buddha, in the magnificent and sacred Buddhist hall, looked at each other.

Xu Que stared at the ancient Buddha excitedly, waiting to receive the inheritance, leave the Buddha realm, and break through his cultivation realm.

The ancient Buddha always maintained that kind and gentle appearance, saying nothing.

For a long time, Xu Que finally couldn't hold back: "What are you looking at?"

"Looking at what... cough, a monk does not lie, Amitabha." The ancient Buddha chanted a Buddha name and said gently, "This predestined person, my Buddha is generous, but a Buddha heart is pure and can see through all laws in the world."

The implication was: don't think about fooling me, I have already seen that you are a clone technique.

Xu Que was stunned, thinking that this dead bald donkey is really not easy to fool.

But it's not a big problem. This is not his ordinary clone technique.

Ever since his technique was smelted, the clones he made were no longer like before, just silver-spear wax-headed, looking good but useless.

The former clone technique and the Three Thousand Thunder Movement were merged together, and the clones summoned again all possessed most of Xu Que's strength.

It's just that these clones can only exist for one hour, and in other aspects, they are almost perfect.

Xu Que had previously relied on dozens of clones, plus the system's retaliation mechanism, to beat two Immortal Kings, at which time his cultivation was not as good as it is now.

Now that his cultivation has greatly improved, the clones he created are naturally more fierce.

"That, ancient Buddha, to tell you the truth, these seventeen good brothers are my sworn brothers. We are like brothers, and we once studied art at the Shaolin Temple. Do you know the Shaolin Temple? It doesn't matter if you don't know. At that time, we were known as the Eighteen Arhats at the Shaolin Temple, which shows that all eighteen of us are devoted to Buddha!"

Xu Que directly started to talk nonsense, relying on the fact that the ancient Buddha hadn't come out for I don't know how many years, thinking of ways to fool him.

The ancient Buddha smiled and said nothing.

This guy really thinks I'm stupid?

"This predestined person, since you said that all seventeen are your good brothers, then I think you should have passed the test together."

The ancient Buddha said slowly, "Since that's the case, I won't make things difficult for you. You only need to show the Buddhist secret arts you have comprehended."

What he said was the test in the second level, in the lotus pond.

Lotus pond test, comprehend ten secret arts, and you can enter the next level.

And those secret arts in the lotus pond, if you pick any one out, are all Mahayana secret arts of Buddhism, profound and incomparable.

Even at the Immortal King realm, at most, one can comprehend ten, and any more will lead to insufficient divine soul power, leading to exhaustion and death.

That level tested not only Buddhist comprehension but also temperament, used to check whether the trial-taker can hold their original heart and not be greedy or competitive.

This person being able to successfully reach this level shows that the Buddhist arts he comprehended before must have been at most ten.

Thinking of this, the smile on the ancient Buddha's face was thick.

I have sat here for ten million years; are you a junior who can fool me?

Simply wishful thinking!

Hearing the ancient Buddha's request, Xu Que was stunned for a moment, showing a look of difficulty: "Showing secret arts... this is a bit difficult."

"If it is not convenient to show, the donor can wait on the side. When other trial-takers enter this place

The fact that he was just asked to wait here instead of being kicked out immediately fully embodied the noble character of my Buddha's benevolence.

"I wonder which secret arts you would like to see?" Xu Que suddenly asked.

"Since the benefactor has decided, then wait on the side... Eh? What did you say?" The Ancient Buddha was stunned for a moment; even though his heart had been as still as an ancient well for many years, he could not help but feel a ripple.

Did this kid not understand what he had said?

Xu Que looked troubled and said, "To tell you the truth, my eighteen brothers and I have already fully comprehended all the secret arts of your second stage, so I don't know which ones you would like to see?"

Ancient Buddha: "..."

The Ancient Buddha only had this one thought in his mind.

Those were tens of thousands of Buddhist secret arts that he had specially selected back in the day; let alone comprehending them all, even being able to comprehend more than ten of them could already be considered as having quite a high level of comprehension in Buddhist Dharma.

Being able to comprehend fifty of them would make one a Buddhist genius, and any Buddhist sect would treat such a person as a Buddha Son.

If one could comprehend more than one hundred, that would be extraordinary—they could be called a living Buddha of the present age, and would be directly enshrined as the hope of Buddhism.

Of course, "living Buddha of the present age" here does not mean he is a living Buddha, but rather that he possesses the potential to become one.

But such a person is already a one-in-ten-thousand... no, a one-in-one-hundred-thousand existence.

And now you are telling me that you eighteen brothers have comprehended all the secret arts?

Do you really take this Buddha for someone who doesn't know the market?

"Since that is the case, then you may demonstrate them." The Ancient Buddha pondered for a moment and spoke.

He wanted to see today what kind of nonsense this young man was going to spout.

Xu Que nodded, turned to look at the seventeen avatars, and said in a resonant voice, "Brothers, show the Ancient Buddha our strength!"

Swish!

As soon as he finished speaking, the seventeen figures raised their hands in unison and threw off their black robes.

According to previous habits, all summoned figures were dressed in black robes with the words "Zha Tian Bang" embroidered on the back.

Now that the black robes were removed, their faces were immediately revealed.

These seventeen people all had smooth, shiny heads, and their exposed upper bodies were entirely golden, appearing incredibly dazzling under the reflection of the Buddha light.

Their robust muscles gleamed with a dark golden hue, exceptionally oily and smooth, invisibly exuding a gay temperament.

Ancient Buddha: "!!!"

What the hell is this?

I told you to demonstrate secret arts, not to streak, hey!

This is a Buddhist holy land! Streaking in public is indecent and unsightly!

"Come on, show it!"

Xu Que let out a low roar and was the first to demonstrate a secret art.

A phantom of a large golden bird emerged behind him, flapping its wings, and its long cry resounded through the temple.

It was indeed the Dharma image of the Golden Peng Great Sage!

"Drink!" The avatar on the side also let out a low shout, and a large green bird appeared.

Immediately after, another terrifying giant elephant appeared.

One after another, terrifying Buddhist Dharma images appeared behind the eighteen people.

"Peacock Wisdom King! Appear!"

"Di Ting! Appear!"

"Green Lion! Appear!"

"..."

Xu Que and his seventeen Arhat avatars summoned hundreds of Buddhist Dharma images one after another; the appearance of each Dharma image represented a Buddhist secret art.

The most outrageous thing was that they didn't have a total of hundreds of types, but rather each person had hundreds of Dharma images; their quantity was so large that they could even vaguely fill this magnificent hall.

The Ancient Buddha was completely dumbfounded.

This... what is going on?

How could anyone be able to comprehend so many Dharma images?

It's unscientific; apart from himself, it's impossible for anyone in this world to comprehend so many secret arts.

Thinking of this, the Ancient Buddha suddenly felt vigilant.

Could this guy be some old rival from the past who reincarnated specifically to mess with him?
